Why..❓❓

Why Ocean water z Salty…..

Ocean water contains lots of different mineral salts: sodium, chloride, sulfate, magnesium, calcium, potassium, bicarbonate and bromide. These salts enter the ocean through rivers, which pass over rocks and soil, picking up salt along the way.
This salt builds up in the ocean because the only way water can leave the ocean is through evaporation. And when the water evaporates it doesn’t take the salt with it. So you end up with less water, and the same amount of salt, resulting in a pretty salty sea.

How it works ⁉

🔈🔉🔊 Speakers work by converting electrical energy into mechanical energy (motion). … In speakers, a current is sent through the voice coil which produces an electric field that interacts with the magnetic field of the permanent magnet attached to the speaker. Like charges repel each other and different charges attract.

Most speakers are made of the following parts that work together to create sound:

Permanent magnet: A magnet is used to provide a fixed magnetic field surrounding the voice coil to make movement possible.
Voice coil and bobbin: The bobbin is a round tube attached to the bottom of the speaker cone . A very long and tightly wound coil of wire, called the voice coil, creates a magnetic field as electricity flows through it from the musical signal from an amplifier.
Spider : the spider is a wavy-shaped thin woven material that supports the voice coil bobbin assembly and helps push the cone back in place as it moves.
Speaker cone & dust cap: the speaker cone is a cone-shaped stiff material that’s moved by the magnet & voice coil together to move air & create sound. The dust cap is a thin material (like a “cap”) that covers the opening in the speaker cone to keep out dust & dirt.
